In his career he has served aboard five ships for a total of sixteen years of sea duty with only two tours ashore. He has lived in Hawaii for fourteen years and has been the Command Master Chief aboard HOLT for a year and a half. Command Master Chief is a challenging opportunity to help both the Command- ing Officer and the crew work towards building high morale and to limit the ef- fects of negative situations. This job is dif- ferent from running a division - there are no technical duties at all. All efforts are directed toward helping people and im- proving the life of all aboard. I find this especially rewarding when able to help a shipmate resolve a problem that is causing him to feel depressed or distracted. This cruise has been rewarding for me because it has helped us to grow together as a crew. We are a lot more effective and closer together than when we left Hawaii. We have had the opportunity to visit some new and interesting places, some that Navy ships do not usually go. It has been fun. Of all the WESTPAC cruises I have been on, this one has been a truly unique experience, and I am proud to say that I was onboard HOLT for it! 5 f ' - I l 4:2--' 9 - ,.-'V - 5 e, if 'M l 'f 4 - .

Although it is possibly the most en- joyable job in the Navy, it also has a few lesser reported duties. Some of those du- ties are worthy of recording: During WEST- PAC 89, 127 heads and beds inspections were conducted, over 2169 urinal and com- mode Close-up examinations were com- pleted, over 100 trees were consumed to make the paper required to generate new instructions, notices and XO memos . . . none of which made the Ten Best Read listg etc. Probably the most important unrecorded statistic for this deployment lies in the fact that this is the best crew to ever be assem- bled in one warship - HOLT. It has been a pleasure to serve with all of you. Aloha. SAY CHEESE Z The XO'cutioner surveys his next prey. ' 'mf-1,1 W , A Qf,i15:c,, 2 M37 it 421 A '35, Z, fgjgjifaf A Miz rl ' fa ' 4 . .
